Capricorn rough cut

Here’s a rough cut of Capricorn (sans melody) with a beat Erik built over my multiphonic chorus. One feature of the Capricorn melody that I really like is the implied metric modulations created by some of the triplets and repeated dotted-quarters. I wanted that to be emphasized since I’m into that kind of thing. Erik’s solution was to call attention to these areas through the bass drum. Check it out:

Capricorn Chords

Now that we’ve pretty much got “Leo” from Tierkreis in the bag, it’s time to start moving on to some new melodies. Here’s a “chord progression” made up completely of multiphonics on soprano saxophone that mirror key pitches in the melody that I put together this evening. It sounds decidedly spectral.
